He was asked:
"What was going through your mind when you produced Strobe?"

[@dragunyt2727]

I think he was touched by god while producing strobe.

[@veno_exe4128]

XD Yess

[@obiwanshinobi5098]

There is something about that melody that just gets me. Like its from the stars. Like interdimensional angelic beings were channelling it to him!! Lol! Kinda has a medievil fantasy adventure video game quality to it to! Lol!!

[@farrel_ra]

@@obiwanshinobi5098 agree! classic house music, with 8-bit theme..

[@JCChavz]

Hi it’s 2023 and yes it’s still technically the best song ever made.

[@youngtano]

God was in the room, I bet.

[@OGmr420]

one of your best songs Joel!

[@johnman9386]

You mean one of the best electronic songs ever.

[@NA-jo6bv]

Track...

[@zwykyziomek2570]

you mean THE best of electronic music

[@-chrisburke]

His best song in my opinion, I love it! 🧡

[@ViewTube_Emperor_of_Mankind]

I'd even say by far. I am still convinced the piece would sound amazing on a pipe organ with the right setting and maybe some additional instruments. The dramaturgy of the whole piece is just perfect. (there is a virtual pipe organ version of it on youtube and that already gives you chills.. but its no comparison to a live organ)

[@farrel_ra]

@@ViewTube_Emperor_of_Mankind agree, organ works with it

[@jaredh723]

Strobe was so fucking ahead of it’s time it’s rediculous. How the guy constructed that song without ever learning piano or being classically trained is just proof some people are born musically talented.

[@austincoleslife]

He was classically trained throughout his childhood, he mentioned in another interview how he hated the piano lessons his parents made him attend. Definitely think this helped him with writing music such as this...

[@TheChadPad]

One of the best damn songs ever written

[@GrauHer]

Strobe is his Master Symphony!!!!

[@greenrryt]

The fact that we were very close to it being an unreleased piece is haunting.

[@Jimmy99]

I feel lots of emotions listening to Strobe. And he does not feel anything. Craazy.

[@WaMo721]

Strobe is a classic EDM song...

[@lucidviolin1298]

best track produced that brings the deepest feeling of nostalgia and has changed lives... but he says" Idk I just do things that work" lol

[@spimbles]

i dont listen to this guys music at all but i love his attitude and demeanor so im binging all of these

[@levilively8643]

Well if you ever listen to one Deadmau5 song in your life, let it be strobe. It's amazing in every way

[@farrel_ra]

AGREEE!!!@@levilively8643

[@gemcami7243]

Man thay is wild. Amazing process

[@whooptygaming]

One of my biggest goals in life is to have a deadmau5 signature on the 'For Lack Of A Better Name' album!

[@michaeldavis159]

I fucking love strobe dude make strobe part 2

[@uddeshyasingh9789]

It's so good tht I don't wanna share it with anyone.

[@MadzEntertainment]

England. Inspiring the best music ;)

[@MythicSuns]

oh god i'm more of a deadmau5 fan than deadmau5 XD. it's Then We Stood Still. mind you i have a hard time remembering my own songs and he has a back catalogue about 5x bigger than mine so i guess that's to be expected

[@MrPrice-bb2gn]

Really an underrated track of his

[@mememaster8368]

Underrated? Its considered one of the most iconic edm songs of all time

[@paulowen8246]

lets put strobe on and turn it up!

[@Keijzersman]

1 hour version when he retires

[@blevinswestmoreland1001]

neat

[@rzorNvme]

Like all best things they happen by accident

[@SunnySidhu_TinyTauTsss]

You SOB Joel you weren't thinking anything because were touched by God when you created Strobe. I always listen to this music no matter what the situation is. If I am sad I listen to it and cry. When I am happy I listen to it and reach Nirvana. When I am indifferent I still listen to it. Its been like this for a decade since I first heard it Benny Benassi FG DJ set.

[@yungalex2497]

did Joel joined any musical school or leaned music theory before becoming deadmau5 he's such a genius I want to know if he learned everything on his own or had some musical lesson before making this his career ?

[@christopherflores4916]

Yes, when he was a child

[@yungalex2497]

Hey dude I know im taking so long to response but can u elaborate on dat nd tell me where ? Did u have any info​@@christopherflores4916

[@giselediniz]

Hashs!

[@DrDriptide]

Welp. Now I kinda wish I hadn't seen this.

[@NavehHalperin]

+B Cantalice for real. Whenever I listen to strobe, I feel connected to the nostalgic mystery of life and beyond, and here the person who produced it says it wasn't "feelings oriented" lol

[@justthinkmore586]

I think it came all in his subconscious. Like he just discovered something awesome. Thank goodness we have Strobe now, also would he actually admit if it was or was not feelings oriented when he made it?

[@qoseb]

Why does it matter? If you made music, you might understand him better.

[@p00pie]

It doesnt matter how he felt. It's how it effects you. If you need you to know the artist's motive behind a song to feel anything you are lame.

[@jadeone]

Joel's biggest thing is that his music affects other people. That is the gratification he gets out of it. So it's good to feel good even if he didn't have anything in mind when making the track.

[@KiloGramNo1]

why does he stream with a potato

[@zacharybrown5150]

They person that pissed in his cheerios probably ain't shit

[@neptune105]

Btw I can c u I’m Neptune btw

[@conchejoraff]

he's lying. I know

[@powerLien]

prove it

[@ecoutezmusic]

could actually be. maybe not that open when it comes to feelings and stuff

[@stuckinmarch2020]

@@ecoutezmusic yeah, in an interview with cbc back in the day, Joel said that even though he live-streams most of his day, he still doesn't think that the fans know/like him. he keeps his private life well under wraps and is in full control of what he chooses to share. he said that the fans love his music but they don't even know Joel.
